(Rudolf Schenker, Klaus Meine)

Sometimes it seems the good times

Never will return

A lot has changed, babe

'Cause evil rules the world



You said you're looking for a place

Where there's no hate

Oh, babe, it really makes no sense

To escape



How long will it take

To make the world a flaming star

How long will it take

Till they stop their senseless wars

How long will it take

Till everybody will understand

That we need to fill our hearts with love again



The only future we've got

Exists right now

Let's take the time, babe

As long as the world is turning 'round



How long will it take

To make the earth a fireball

How long will it take

Till no more life exists at all

How long will it take

Till everybody will understand

That we need to fill our hearts with love again



It's up to you

To fight the evil in your mind

It's up to you

The more love you give, the more you'll find

The more love you give, the more you'll find



Don't make the world a flaming stra

Stop, stop all these senseless wars

How long will it take

Till everybody will understand

That we need to fill our hearts with love again
